Fruity Pebbles Rice Krispies

Fruity Pebbles Rice Krispie Treats

I love a good marshmallow treat. It’s an easy snack that falls under the easy desserts category that feeds a crowd, uses minimal ingredients, and requires very little time.   The classic rice krispie treat will always be my favorite but this fruity twist is a close second.  Each bite is bursting with that fruity flavor fruity pebbles are known for and ooey gooey marshmallows that the kids love. 

Ooey Gooey Marshmallow Treats

We like our rice krispie treats on the ooey gooey side of things and this recipe reflects that.  If you like your marshmallow treats a bit firmer just add a bit more cereal, depending on your preference. Make sure to remember that the rice krispies will firm up a bit while cooling so you don’t want to add too much and then end up with dry treats. 

Ingredients needed:

• marshmallows
• butter, we like to use salted butter
• fruity pebbles cereal
• vanilla extract

How to make Fruity Pebbles Rice Crispy Treats

1. In a large pot and on low heat melt butter and all but 1 cup of mini marshmallows. You can also do this in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl.
2. Once marshmallows are melted stir in remaining cup of marshmallows and stir for a few seconds. Remove from heat. 
3. Add vanilla.

4. Add cereal and mix until fully combined.

5. Spray a 9x 13 inch pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper. Place mixture in an even layer in the prepared baking dish and allow to cool.

6. Cut into squares and serve at room temperature.

For an extra touch of sweetness you can melt some white chocolate chips and drizzle  it on top of the finished crispy treats.
